Walk, Wheel, Run, Cycle or Hack to raise vital funds to help horses.
Do you, your family and your friends love spending time trekking across the countryside? Are you a walker, a jogger, a cycler, or a rider? Why not combine that love with your love for horses and join our Welfare Wanderers campaign, raising money to improve the welfare of horses one step/pedal/hoof at a time? The campaign runs every year from April to October.
How it works:
- Dust off the walking boots, bike or saddle.
- Set yourself a goal. It can be whatever you’re comfortable with; steps, miles or a fundraising target. Or a combination of your choice.
- Decide if you’re working alone or teaming up with family/friends.
- Decide a fundraising target (between £50-£1,000 depending on how ambitious you are).
- Sign up for the campaign on JustGiving here.
- Get in touch to let us know you’ve signed up by emailing fundraising@worldhorsewelfare.org.
If you have any questions or need guidance on setting up an online fundraising page, just get in touch by emailing fundraising@worldhorsewelfare.org or call us on +44(0)1953497229.
Why raise funds for World Horse Welfare?
If you choose to raise funds for World Horse Welfare, you’ll be helping horses to live better lives around the world. As an international equine welfare charity, we strive to improve the horse-human partnership in all of its guises. We help horses in need, horses in sport and leisure, and horses used in work and production. By working with owners, communities, organisations, institutions and governments, we have a track record of improving welfare standards and stamping out suffering in the UK and worldwide through hands-on care, research, education and influence.
We run the UK’s largest equine rescue and rehoming scheme and, on average, we take in more than 300 horses and ponies each year and aim to find them loving new homes after their expert rehabilitation. We also help to improve the lives of tens of thousands of working horses, mules, and donkeys – and the families who rely on them for their livelihoods – through our international programmes which work with local partner organisations and horse owning communities in 17 countries in Africa, Latin America, and Asia.
By fundraising for us, you’ll be helping horses who need it most in the UK or further afield. Thank you so much for considering supporting this vital work.
